Batman / Catwoman

Not much Batman

Catwoman imposing but not very sympathetic

Joker, of all people, comes out at the best

I loved Helena Wayne on Earth 2. This future version is very flat, not interesting at all, as is Police Commissioner Dick Grayson

Old Harley Quinn very poorly portrayed, even would say betrayed.

Flashbacks and Flashforwards, at least three storyline, confusing to read. Everything all my writing books say not to do.

King may make sense of this mess in the last issue but it is not worth reading.

Up to current issue of Nightwing

It was a slow start
But Tom Taylor’s run
Becomes great with

Issue 82

Even the three part Fear State Crossover

Was done well

While most of these types of stories

Are either non essential or impossible to follow without the main storyline

Those issues were fun!

I just finished the total mess that was Fear State (many great concepts and a lot of potential wasted) and now I’m currently reading Nightwing Rebirth up to current

Up to the current issue of Wonder Woman

The creative team is doing a great job

The Alternative Planes of Existence that Diana went through were thoroughly engaging

And the squirrel was outstanding

Up to Date
With

Green Lantern

Joker

When I was reading
Batman Comics

I wondered where
Jim Gordon was

The Joker Title
Is really Gordon’s.

Both Titles are good

Tried to read Superman Red & Blue. Sorry, not the same as Batman Black and White. I found the artwork very difficult to look at.

Is that Joker book good.? I know a ton of people are reading it.

The art is good

I understood the storyline of each issue.

Lots of times with current Batman stories
I can’t say that.

Major character is Jim Gordon, now retired from being Commissioner

Not a Gotham story
Batman rarely appears

Barbara Gordon has a bigger role

The two new Batgirls also appear.

Joker has a few pages nearly every issue

The story moves along
All around the world.

I thought it was

Better than current Batman and Detective

Not as good as
Catwoman
Nightwing

I have never been a Catwoman fan, but I have skipped around current Nightwing and I am mostly liking what I’m reading.

I’ll def check it out, although I was it was like 95% about the Joker instead of mostly about other characters like it sounds.

The storyline is mostly about the Joker

Yet there are issues where you don’t see him much

Finished reading the 3-issue Hawkworld mini-series by Tim Truman.

Haven’t read in probably 15 years but I’ve been jonesing to reread the ongoing Hawkworld series again, and I wanted to start at the “beginning”.

I’m finishing up “formally known as the justice league” and for fans of the 1980s justice league it is an absolute trip.

I’ve decided to dip back into the Superman triangle era and those issues are just so well done. Justice league of America issues 66-68 are so well done! Great art and great story.

I am a quarter of the way through the Gerard Way doom patrol and it is extremely well written and beautifully rendered.

I tried the John Byrne doom patrol and aside from the secret origins annual, it’s unfortunately low quality storytelling.
